Blake is averaging 9.5 points and 7.6 assists in 27 games this season. Bazemore is averaging 2.3 points in 44 appearances and Brooks is averaging 2.6 points and 1.4 rebounds in seven games this season – he was acquired in January by the Warriors from the Nets.

On Wednesday, the Kings traded Marcus Thornton to New Jersey for Jason Terry and Reggie Evans.

On Thursday, they acquired Roger Mason Jr. from Miami for a highly-protected second round pick.

Hawes is the latest move in the 76ers effort to rebuild. He was traded to Cleveland for two second round draft picks, forward Earl Clark and center Henry Sims.

Hawes is averaging 13.0 points per game and 8.2 rebounds – he heads to the Cavs, who are still chasing for a playoff spot in the East.
